Iran's nuclear program, enrichment of uranium and its ballistic-missle development program have been at the crux of the negotiations.

GENEVA (AP) — Iran and the United States held hours of indirect negotiations Thursday over Tehran’s nuclear program but walked away without a deal, leaving the danger of another Mideast war on the table as the U.S. has gathered a massive fleet of aircraft and warships in the region.

Silence from the US side after a third round of indirect talks and frustration expressed by President Donald Trump set the stage for military strikes.

Thursday’s indirect talks between Tehran and Washington come amid rising tensions fueled by the US military buildup.

The talks sought to de-escalate tensions after Washington bombed Iranian nuclear sites and Tehran launched a bloody crackdown on nationwide protests.
